Sarfraz, during his address in the National Assembly of Pakistan, alleged Jones of match-fixing, but never said anything in media. The former Pakistani fast bowler believes that Jones was sacked from the Australian team because of corrupt
practices.
However, Jones claims that it was him who decided to retire from International cricket in the 1990s and the selectors wanted him to continue. Jones expressed that Sarfraz’s claims are not based on facts and this is the reason why he never
said such thing on media or in public.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Jones-c69217 said, “It was me who retired from international cricket and the selectors wanted me to continue in the one-day format. Sarfraz was lucky he didn't make these ridiculous allegations outside of parliament, as I would have sent legal
action against him forthwith. Thus the reason he went silent."
The 50-year-old former top-order batsman was an integral part of the Australian team during 1980s and early 1990s. The right-handed batsman has 11 Test tons and seven One Day International hundreds under his belt and averaged in mid 40s

Jones added that Imran Khan and some other Pakistani cricketer were present when he was about to beat Sarfraz, when he was in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Stuart-Clark-c2591.
"All of my Pakistani friends were there, with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Waqar-Younis-Maitla-c96193. I was so ready to break Sarfraz's nose. Luckily for Sarfraz, Imran took me aside and cooled me down. Sarfraz had no evidence to back up his allegations,"
he added.
